TROUBLE WITH STUDENTS AT CLEMSON.
The Entire Sophomore Class, Numbering 69,
Leave the College in a Body.
Pendleton, April 30.-At 12.80 p. m. 60
students, the entire Sophomore ola&s at
Clemson, marched out of tho barracks
and boarded a Soutberu Railway train !
for home, having taken this oourse
after due consideration of the facts (as
they saw them) of Cadet Thornwell boing
suspended for the taking up and using a
(2-cent) test tube in the Chemical I .abo
iatmy. AU the Sophomore olass re
sooted this i nj md iee and presented a j
potition to the faoulty asking that Thorn
well be taken back, as his offense was
not of suoh a nature us to call for so
severe punishment, stating that all of
them had done the same thing often
without reproval and considered the
using of test tubes no more than going
for a fresh piece of ohalk while at black
board. The whole class marched out
with heads up in good order and with
out the slightest disorder or disrespect
to the institution. Your correspondent
saw dozens of them in tears, for they felt
deeply tho grosB in just ico heaped on ono
of their number who stands high in their
love and respect, ono who carries woll
tho name ho boars.
'I'his I very much fear is not tho end,
for each Sophomore earries with bim a
certificate from both Junior aod Senior I
classes, ondorsiug and commending the |
course taken by the Sophomores, and
there is no telling what will bo dono
unloss there aro some radical ohauges
mado. The boys say their parents don't
roalize what they submit to from some
of these professors, and, while they love
the institution, they feel that unloss
some changes aro made they will be |
compelled to seek other means of COm
ploting their oduoation. *
Junior Class May Leave.
A phono message from Clemson as WO

citement exists at tho college and there
is a strong' probability that tho Junior
class will leavo to-day. At this hour
